We are super proud to announce we have been featured on the Creators Project!
Digital Bolex on the Creators Project
This is a great site that features influential art and technology that push the boundaries of creative expression. If you haven’t seen it definitely check it out. We also have a new spot that they featured:
Hey guys, thank you so much for your support! We can’t believe we’re over $250,000 on Kickstarter.
Just wanted to post quickly about the Vimeo issue: We didn’t realize that Vimeo was not allowing viewers to see the full HD video. We just upgraded to a pro account, so we will be re-uploading those videos as soon as we can. We appreciate your patience.

EDIT: “Storybook” and the One Small Step Trailer have been reuploaded in 1080, and should be viewable in fullscreen now! The other vids will be coming shortly.
Here’s a quick example of color grading from our Storybook spot. Having spent so much time working with DSLRs, I almost can’t believe my eyes with how little the image has been degraded, even with a ton of Photoshop adjustments!
There are a few highlight blowouts, it’s true–we think that might be related to a kink with how the prototype captures when hooked directly to the computer, which is how we’ve shot most of our projects so far. We’ve also found that with highlights, the blue channel often retains full color information, so the information can be cloned & resurrected in the other channels, if necessary.
We just wrapped our newest Bolex spot, “Storybook”, which features amazing illustrations by Bill Bronson and a precocious performance by Alyssa Miller, who you can also see in One Small Step. Watch now on the videos page.
We’ve also made some of the “Storybook” artwork available as a desktop background. Check it out!
Having a little fun in Bolex Land today…
